AMD FX55 and A64 4000+ systems up for sale

EARLY BIRDS subscribed to PCW mag and who have already received their latest December copy will probably have noticed the presence of two systems featuring the yet to be formally announced Athlon 64 4000+.
The first one is the Evesham Axis Xcelsior which sports the Athlon 64 4000+ and a MSI K8N Nforce 3 250 based motherboard. Two 512MB memory modules populate half of the available slots bringing the total memory to 1GB. Two 160GB Western Digital hard disks installed in RAID-1 mean that you won't lose data easily.

On top of that, Evesham has included one Sony Dual layer 16x DVD writer and the superb Creative Audigy 2 ZS matched with a Creative Inspire T9700 speakers.

Other parts include a Radeon X800XT graphic card with 256MB memory, Microsoft Wireless bundle combo and the topping, a 20-inch Viewsonic LCD monitor, the VP201s. The software pack include Pinnacle Studio 9SE, Windows XP Home, Works 7 and Etrust EZ antivirus. The price is steep at £1899+VAT. But for those who still want the A4000+ but can do without the other bells and whistles, you can get a slimmed down version for only £1061.62+VAT from their online configurator

The second PC is the Mesh Matrix 4000+ which is not yet available on its website. The latter's configuration is slightly less demanding as compared to the Evesham system. The 4000+ has the same memory configuration as the Evesham - 1GB in two modules but a different motherboard, the Asus A8V deluxe. The primary storage used is an abnormally large 300GB SATA hard disk drive from Maxtor. There are also two secondary drives consisting of a Sony 16x dual layer DVD Writer and a CD-RW drive.

Also in the box is a Creative Labs Audigy 2 ZS platinum card, better than the Evesham one, coupled with the same speakers though. The graphic subsystem consists of a Leadtek Geforce A440 6800GT graphic card coupled with a 19-inch Viewsonic LCD monitor. The rest is pretty much standard, Windows XP Home, Logitech Wireless mouse and keyboard, modem and Gigabit LAN. No difference between the Evesham and the Mesh one on the software side. Pretty much the same stuff but at a much cheaper price - £1399. Last word on the apparent presence of an Asus 802.11G WiFi PCI card which cannot be confirmed though.

On top of that, Mesh allows you to swap the 4000+ for a FX55 processor with a smaller 250GB hard disk, this brings the price to a challenging £1570.06+VAT which should allow it to grab the "Fastest PC in the World" title for at least a week.

Other system retailers like Tiny and other online suppliers in UK are yet to stock these parts. But I would guess that Athlon 64 4000+ are going to enjoy quite a good time simply because they start a new cycle that Intel will be sorely missing. What does that mean for AMD fanboys? It seems that AMD supplies are aplenty as compared to their arch-rival as they have already supplied the goods to retailers before the official launch. µ

A diferença entre o 3800+ e o 4000+ é que o 2º tem 1mb de cache.
O FX55 e o 4000+ são iguais, só mudam os multiplicadores disponíveis.
Eu preferia +200mhz :P mas continua a ser o CPU mais rápido do mercado.

PR rating em relação a CPU's k n existem no mercado, LOL, alguém anda a ficar para traz :D
 
Última edição:
o PR é em relação a um AMD 1000MHz ... isto de acordo com a ultima versão dos PR da AMD :D

o FX-55 era bem vindo aqui pros vizinhos do lado ... ou melhor o XP4000+@6000+ :009:

XP4000+? Where? :D
Entre o FX55 e o 4000+, a diferença é os multis né? O FX td unlocked e o 4000+ só os inferiores ao default?
 
In case you missed it, a couple weeks ago AMD (quietly) launched their first 90 nm Athlon 64 parts. Surprisingly, these parts launched at clock speeds at or below the current Athlon 64 offerings. The new models are the 3000+, 3200+ and 3500+ with clock speeds of 1.8 GHz, 2.0 GHz, and 2.2 GHz. Whether that was simply AMD being conservative or AMD trying to lower the cost of entry for socket 939 is difficult to say, but our early tests indicate that the 90 nm parts have plenty of headroom when paired with a quality OEM heatsink. The price on the 3500+ is actually slightly higher than the 130 nm version, once you factor in the cost of an after market HSF, but since enthusiasts are likely as not to purchase a quality HSF for their CPU it isn't a major concern. The 3000+ and 3200+, on the other hand, are priced to move at under $200, removing price as a barrier for entry into the socket 939 world. With the large amount of overlap in AMD's product names, it can be somewhat confusing, so remember to double check that you are getting the right CPU for your motherboard. We will have some articles that provide more information on these new CPU parts in the near future.

In addition to the recent 90 nm parts, AMD has the 4000+ and FX-55 scheduled for launch in the very near future. These are still 130 nm parts, although 90 nm parts are likely to become available at some point.

Da mesma maneira que distinguem os 3500.
Isto é, as lojas que apanham os 0.09 estão a publicita-los como sendo 0.09.
Só espero que não haja "enganos".

Já agora, o 4000 é um Fx53 bloqueado. Nada de novo.
 
Os 0.09 chegam a 2.6 com facilidade, logo axo k a AMD ker mudar para 0.09 1º os k dão mais lucro, no inicio do proximo ano deve surgir 1 4000+ 0.09 com 512 de cache e 2.6Ghz.

O pricipal interesse destes CPU's é k vão baixar o preço dos outros todos, e isso é uma boa noticia :D
 
Ve-se pelos steppings, é facil! :)

O 4000+ é equivalente ao FX-53, tirando o facto de ter multiplicadores mais altos bloqueados, só dá para descer.

Sim, lojas como *****, ***** e afins devem conseguir steppings do genero
"A64 3500+ 0,09 em stock" bla bla bla
:rolleyes:

Eu quero um 3500+ 0,09 para torrar :D :D :D :D :D
 
E também já estão disponiveis para pre-order na ***** com os simpaticos preços de 546 libras para o 4000+ e de 610 libras para o Fx-55.
